RE: What's all the fuss about?? (forgiveness--accuracy--etc)
I agree, most properly tunedbows(even older ones) are far more accurate than we could ever shoot them. When I shot a lot of tournaments I found that all of the form worries often caused me problems, I was thinking it to death instead of just relaxing and shooting. My mind was worried about form, draw, grip, release, etc. etc. etc. which often caused me to lose focus on the target. I think it's funny you did this test as I have performed many similiar "experiments" myself. Shooting sitting down, lying down,turned around, crouched, kneeling,canted, with/without release(just to see the effect on POI at 10, 20 &30), all kinds ofstuff.Most of the time the range was within 20-25 yards and surprisingly enoughthe large majorityof time the arrow went where the pin was with minimal accuracy problems. Thanks for posting your results and pics, I feel it's something more people should try, at the veryleast it gives you a little better understanding of your equipments capabilities.
